📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The Caritas program of the Kaunas Archdiocese "Child Welfare Institute" (VGI) has been operating since 2016. Our mission is to help families develop sustainable values that will be passed on to all target audiences. The main goal of VGI is to help a child grow up happily in a family and to give adoptive and guardian families a space to communicate with each other, to get to know children and their characteristics better, to hear their inner voice - intuition, and to free themselves for a joyful relationship with the child.

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
